C5 Seat swap?
Anyone know if it is possible to move the seats (without the frames) from one side to the other? My car is 2001 Z06 with 120k miles. Almost always only me in the car so the driver's seat is getting a little worn looking - but the passneger's is like new. Can I swap them side to side?
Thanks

Are they both power seats? Are you cool with the buttons being on the wrong side? Personaly I'd just get it recoved I had a seat done in fake leather looks just like real stuff for $200 out the door and it will last alot longer!!!!!!!!

The side of the seat next to the console is fabric and not leather. If you swap the seats the fabric side will be visible, the side now next to the console will rub on the console. What color is the interior? Unless it is Firethorn, a number of companies, including a vendor here on the forum offer good quality upholstery kits at good prices.

I'd just get the one seat recovered - and not have to deal with the issues mentioned above.
